Together with its partner Implenia, HOCHTIEF has secured a contract from Deutsche Bahn (German Federal Railway) for the second trunk route of the suburban railway in Munich.
The joint venture, under the technical leadership of Implenia, will build the central station Marienhof. The future station Marienhof will be located in the center of Munich.
The contract volume is approximately €400 million ($457 million), whereby the two companies each have a 50 percent participation in the joint venture. The second trunk route envisages an additional underground inner-city link, which runs roughly parallel to the first trunk route in the center of Munich, which opened in 1972. The project, for which the overall construction work began in 2017, runs for a length of around 10 kilometers (6 miles) and is designed to increase capacities on the very busy route.
The construction work will commence in summer 2019.
